The only ones that make any money at all is the eBay/PayPal company. Yes, PayPal is an eBay company, so not only do you pay your fee for listing and a percentage of the final sell amount, but you also pay them again under the rouse of PayPal fees.

On top of all these fees is the threat of them keeping your money while they ?investigate? some fallacy and pretence to ?Limit? your account. This goes on for approximately thirty days while you send your precious treasures off in the mail, which you have to traipse to the post office for, because you can?t do it through the PayPal system while it is ?limited?. So, off they go in the mail, while people pay them for your items, which you have to pay to send out of pocket, and they get to keep your money and earn interest, I can imagine, somewhere along the way.

Oh, people can still put money in for PayPal to have, but the account holder will never get any of it.

Quite a little racket they have going there. You do the work, sacrifice your belongings and time and money, while they sit back and scrape in the dough. Meanwhile, you jump through all their hoops, faxing this information and that information, while they continue to ?investigate?.

Smells of old rotting fish to me and sounds like a company that needs ?investigating? themselves!

What they are doing is ?conversion? and it is a crime in all fifty states!
